Deborah Johnson Granted Master Artisan Status for her Glass Work

Deborah Johnson was granted Master Artisan status for her glass work in the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen. Members achieve master status through an in-person review by experts. " The conceptual richness evidenced in the work shows the nature, complexity and execution that marks each individual’s work as distinctive and unique. It sets it apart from the work of others, not only qualitatively, but in achieving an individual identity, readily recognizable as belonging to that maker."
